Damian Wasserman, co-founder of BEON.tech, recently spoke with Gizmodo Brazil, a leading tech magazine in the country. He discussed how Brazil is becoming a key player in the IT industry and why U.S. tech leaders should consider tapping into Brazil’s top-tier talent. As a tech talent partner, BEON.tech focuses on connecting the top 3% of Latin American developers with innovative U.S. companies. Damian’s insights are invaluable for software engineers seeking their ideal job in the U.S.
